My 1996 E320 model still has the dip stick. Even that the level checking is complicated.

The dipstick had two marks, actually four, Max and Min for AT fluid temp at 80F (30C on mine) and Max & Min for 180F (80C), measured at the AT pan.

I don't know how the hell can it be achieved? how do you catch the moment of 80F and 180F, it is just crazy that the engineers came up with that.
